In this episode I share my 3 (technically 4) favorite ankle mobility drills:

But to provide some more context I made this video discussing some other considerations:
🦶Careful of always staying with low load exercises.

🦶Why not train other qualities WITH ankle mobility such as strength?

🦶If you are going to do a low load exercise, I personally recommend it being a VERY simple activity that allows the person to get to it frequently (I feel the volume of low load is what will create the lasting change). Combine that with loaded training you probably have a nice recipe!

🦶I realize I left out loaded gastroc and soleus raises. Definitely don't forget those!

🧐What about those who have good ankle mobility with single leg tasks such as anterior tap down or knee to wall, but struggle with bilateral tasks such as a true knee forward squat. Is there a point ankle mobility has been maximized and pelvic/thorax structure or adaptability is what limits further improvement in bilateral movements such as a squat?
